Fire
A fire burns
It burns within me
It burns around me
I feel inflamed
I feel trapped
It’s all around, burning me up!
I feel hot
I feel crowded
Escape!
I need to escape
I cry out for someone
I need to escape!
I let out my breath
I can’t get it back
My chest feels tight
My fists are clenched
I close my eyes
Tears fall down
Tears fall down
And the fire still burns
It burns within me
It burns around me…
